Australia are current world Test champions, having subjected India to a second successive final defeat at the Oval two years ago when Travis Head's first-innings 163 proved the decisive performance. Pat Cummins leads a team that hasn't tasted a series loss since early 2023 and has enjoyed recent wins over New Zealand, India and Sri Lanka.
South Africa may be the final's surprise package, but their impressive form in this WTC cycle earned them the top spot in the table. You have to go back a year-and-a-half to find their last loss in a Test match, and there's good reason why pace duo Kagiso Rabada and Marco Jansen are currently in the top 10 ranked bowlers in the world.
The Proteas have the quality to upset the Aussies, and have yet another opportunity at Lord's this week to shed their reputation as chokers when it really matters. Can they do it?
